Light and color have the biggest effect on our perception of the world around us. Just imagine the way you feel on a bright, sunny summer day, walking with people in brightly colored clothing. Now think of the way you feel on a rainy, drizzly day with all the drab raincoats and umbrellas around you. Maybe umbrellas should only be made in bright colors? My umbrella and my winter coat are bright red so that I feel better as I get ready to go out.

These images all show how light and color perceptions hold true in HomeByMe projects too. They’ll make you smile and feel great! Let them inspire you to think about how you use light and color in your own projects.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could stand in the middle of your project and swivel around to see how things look rendered in 3D? Well you can! HomeByMe Panorama images let you create an image you can rotate 360°, go left and right, look up and down and zoom in or out. Better yet, you can look at them in 3D on your smartphone using a variety of imagers. You can even embed them on your website. Just imagine doing a presentation and sharing them with the people involved in your project.

To give it a try, go to the 360° Image page and check out all the details. Explore these examples to see for yourself how great they are – just left click, hold and move your mouse around!
